If you are a fan of NBA basketball, then you should pay attention to these people.

Lakers were embarrassed last night. Lost by 31 points? Hopefully they don't get swept. On the bright  side, all their D-leaguers are getting playoff experience.

Splitter out doesn't mean any meaningful loss to the Spurs in this particular series. Just remember that  with him out by the end of the 3rd quarter, Spurs still managed to win the 4th 35-26. So no problem. If  any, the win margin will drop from 31 as today to 15, still a win.

Just like the lakers and Celtics, the Clippers can't make their shots and the Grizzlies can't miss.  Coaching is winning it for Memphis. Clippers keep turning the ball over. Memphis will advance.

The Lakers hopes for a championship seemingly died along with Dr. Buss earlier in the season. I don't  know of they'll ever be able to get back to championship form with the current roster and with Jim Buss  running the show. It was good while it lasted. It was a very, very long run. Thank you Lakers for the  past 2 dozen years that I've been following you religiously. Thank you for all the memories. Now time to  jump on the Lob City bandwagon.

The comment on many basketball fans in the NBA.

The Lakers team needs some fine tuning. If the Heat can buy all stars why is Los Angeles sitting on  their hands????? Get out the briefcase and find a decent agent (WHO CAN SEEEE) talent......Please


I'm a huge Lakers fan but truth be told, this is not a solid team. They were barely good enough to make  the playoffs and this was going to be the result no matter if the team was healthy or not. Actually with  age comes injuries and this should have been expected and hopefully they will address this in the off  season. In order to really compete for a championship they need more youthful athleticism; I think they  need to blow the team up and start finding the kind of players that can make them competitive. They also  need players who can put their egos to the side and this includes Kobe Bryant. It's just over with this  group and changes need to be coming.


The Spurs haven't been tested yet in the playoffs. They just having fun like they are at Disneyland. The  second round would tell who the Spurs are.



This series is pathetic and so are the Lakers without Kobe Bryant.Without him there is no true leader  that can lead them on both sides of the floor.People need to understand that Kobe has career highs  against the Spurs regarding points,assist and rebounds. Don't forget that he has 5 rings,yes 5 and two  without Shaq- Lakers are lost without the greatest Laker that has ever put on that jersey.

What are you most interested in? The NFL football?

cheap nfl nike jerseys QB Alex Smith has had his best season ever as a professional. But even with that, many folks doubt he can produce in a pressure-filled situation. The time is now if he is to prove the doubters wrong, but not in the way that most would think. Smith must continue to get the 49ers offense in the correct sets and plays against a Saints defense that can be vulnerable.

nfl jerseys free shipping The Saints have been opportunistic, but they cannot be as opportunistic if you play smart and take care of the football. RB Frank Gore had another productive season (282 carries, 1211 yards, 8 TDs). And he will again be counted on to be the focus of the offense. Gore must make the Saints pay for being pretty porous in run defense. The more effective the 49ers are on the ground, the less possessions Bress has to wreak havoc on the field. Another key matchup will be the Saints DBs vs Michael Crabtree and the 49ers passing game. Crabtree, along with the presence of TE Vernon Davis, have been giving teams fits when the Niners pass. He must continue his strong play down the stretch to give Smith a big-time threat down the field. Saints S Malcolm Jenkins will more than likely draw the assignment of keeping Davis in check. If Jenkins allows Davis to stretch the Saints defense, that makes the 49ers even that much more dangerous. Also, if S Roman Harper is caught covering anyone, the Niners must look to take advantage of him. Harper’s more trouble rushing the passer(7.5 sacks) than in the passing game. Lastly, WR/PR/KR Ted Ginn must be paid attention to. He could take it the distance every time he touches the ball.
